Yup looks like an oversight. The nesting already shows that it's a merge and what revision made the merge. But we don't show the direction of the merge. I've coded up a trivial change to add a reverse-merge attribute on the logentry element in this case. e.g. <logentry revision="13" reverse-merge="true"> Once I write a test for it I'll commit it. Given that it changes the XML output, I probably wouldn't backport this to 1.8.x.
